Last year I threw a set of Nokian WRG3 tires on it and used it as my ski vehicle. Those are NOT hardcore snow tires but are severe service rated all-weather tires. I had no issues driving over snow covered mountain passes at highway speeds. I'd have no qualms about using it as my ski vehicle again this year but I'm replacing it (2012 P85) with a P100D just as soon as they can get it to me.
